Apple CEO Tim Cook gave an excellent commencement speech to the 2015 graduating class at George Washington University this weekend.

While it includes some powerful points – meeting segregationist governor George Wallace, Cook’s youthful admiration for Martin Luther King Jr. and RFK, the importance of accessibility and positive action – there’s also a cheeky plug for the iPhone:

They asked me to make a standard announcement – you’ve heard this before – about silencing your phones. Those of you with an iPhone, just place it in Silent Mode. If you don’t have an iPhone, please pass it to the center aisle, Apple has a world-class recycling program…..

.......maybe in 2016 he'll say "if your device isn't "Powered by Poet", it's battery is probably dead already, so please pass it to the center aisle, Apple has a world-class recycling program....
